Constable Seevathian after giving evidence at the Supreme Court in Port Louis, Mauritius
28 May 2012
A policeman who arrested one of the men accused of murdering Michaela McAreavey has been warned by the judge after failing to answer a question on how the suspect was dealt with.
Avinash Treebhoowoon, 30, confessed to strangling the Co Tyrone honeymooner in the wake of the murder last January but has since insisted the admission was beaten out of him by Mauritian police.
He has made an official complaint that his head was held under water and he was almost suffocated with a towel during interrogation.
Constable Hans Rouwin Seevathian, of the police's major crime investigation team, was less than forthcoming when questioned by a defence barrister about what he and his team did with his client Treebhoowoon the day after the January 10 murder.
He was asked to explain what happened during a two-and-a-half hour period between them arriving and taking custody of Treebhoowoon at Legends Hotel, where Mrs McAreavey was killed, and the suspect making a statement in a local police station.
The court fell silent as the officer did not offer an answer. Judge Mr Justice Prithviraj Fecknah then stepped in.
"Let the record show that the witness remains silent to this question," he said.
When further pressed, the officer told defence counsel Sanjeev Teeluckdharry that he was questioning the accused about his movements.
But he repeatedly answered "I can't remember" to a series of other questions posed by the lawyer about his involvement with the defendant in the days after the murder.
The judge warned him about his answers several times. "You will tell us what happened because those events are very important for his trial. So make an effort to remember," Justice Fecknah told him at one point.
